The caretaker Prime Minister is undermining the constitutional position of the Attorney-General by instructing him to prosecute the former Attorney-General Tommy Thomas


(Versi BM)

The caretaker Prime Minister, Ismail Sabri, is undermining the constitutional position of the Attorney-General by instructing him to prosecute the former Attorney-General Tommy Thomas with regard to his book, “My Story: Justice in the Wilderness”.

Ismail Sabri is bringing justice in Malaysia back into the wilderness by instructing the Attorney-General to prosecute Tommy Thomas when under Article 145(3) of the Constitution, the Attorney General “shall have power, exercisable at his discretion, to institute, conduct or discontinue any proceedings for an offence, other than proceedings before a Syariah court, a native court or a court-martial”.

Ismail Sabri should uphold the Constitution and not be subverting the Constitution as he said in his speech in Bagan Datuk he had instructed the Attorney-General Idrus Harun to take action against Thomas under the Official Secrets Act (OSA), defamation law and others and that he had declassified the report on the investigation into Thomas’ book so it can be used as political “bullets” to attack Pakatan Harapan.

Ismail Sabri is making a mockery of the constitutional independence of the Attorney-General with regard to the institution, conduct or discontinuance of any prosecution.

This is a clear case of political persecution in the guise of investigation and prosecution.

Perdana Menteri sementara merendah-rendahkan kedudukan Peguam Negara dengan mengarahkannya untuk menyiasat bekas Peguam Negara, Tommy Thomas

Perdana Menteri sementara, Ismail Sabri, sedang merendah-rendahkan kedudukan dalam perlembagaan Peguam Negara dengan mengarahkannya untuk mendakwa bekas Peguam Negara, Tommy Thomas, kerana bukunya yang bertajuk “My Story: Justice in the Wilderness”.

Ismail Sabri sedang membawa kemunduran terhadap keadilan di negara dengan mengarahkan Peguam Negara untuk mendakwa Tommy Thomas sedangkan di bawah peruntukan Perkara 145(3) Perlembagaan, Peguam Negara “mempunyai kuasa yang boleh dijalankan menurut budi bicaranya, untuk memulakan, menjalankan atau memberhentikan apa-apa prosiding bagi sesuatu kesalahan, selain prosiding di hadapan mahkamah Syariah, mahkamah anak negeri atau mahkamah tentera.”

Ismail Sabri sepatutnya menjunjung Perlembagaan dan bukannya merendahkan Perlembagaan seperti yang dilakukannya dalam ucapannya di Bagan Datuk, di mana dia telah mengarahkan Peguam Negara, Idris Harun, untuk mengambil tindakan terhadap Thomas di bawah peruntukan Akta Rahsia Rasmi (OSA), undang-undang fitnah, dan undang-undang lain dan bahawa dia telah menyah-rahsiakan laporan siasatan ke atas buku Thomas supaya laporan ini dapat digunakan sebagai “peluru” politik untuk menyerang Pakatan Harapan.

Ismail Sabri sedang memperbodohkan peruntukan perlembagaan mengenai kebebasan Peguam Negara untuk memulakan, menjalankan atau memberhentikan apa-apa prosiding.

Perkara ini adalah satu contoh jelas kes penindasan politik yang disorokkan di sebalik satu siasatan dan pendakwaan.

    The caretaker Prime Minister, Ismail Sabri is more concerned with winning the election by using unscrupulous tactics than saving the Ringgit from depreciating further into the drain!!!

    Ringgit is at RM3.36 to 1 Singapore Dollar today and this is the result of the country being governed by BN AKA BeeNd government!!!

    LKS, are you and PH members doing their best for the coming GE15. Why, we question you and especially PKR “empty heads”, is MUDA kept waiting on seat allocations. Is the PH team really serious on winning ? The pie is big enough. PKR lost all in Johore and Melaka. Stupidity breeds more stupidity and we will surely not vote for PKR if this situation does not change NOW. Get moving, every day is a day late for PKR to regain its chances.
